This should be heavily publicized. Hopefully, by letting people know that they can earn a good living by being a police officer, the quality of candidates will continue to increase. Entering the police force still carries a stigma, IMO, particularly around not being highly intelligent or thinking for oneself. Those are likely the people we want as our police officers; I'm more than happy to have my taxes support such pay levels if we do attract those people to the force.
Well, yeah, but Expedia is primarily a search/booking engine, right? They aren't directly creating new, network-effect related opportunities. Much easier to innovate in that area (e.g. Hipmunk) vs. with a marketplace where scale and availability are key.
I still feel like there are going to be some major regulatory changes that will eventually hit these types of businesses. What we've generally seen is cities say no, then realize how much value there is but not know what to do about it, then say yes. What we haven't seen as much is the post-yes interaction, where additional taxes and regulations get established. Should be interesting.
Don't particularly understand why that's a tired argument - I think that's a wise piece of the puzzle for any investor to consider. It's so interesting to hear investors criticize a savvy pitch like crazy then hand over a bucket of money to something like Secret.
There is no such thing as a 7-minute workout that will completely get you in shape. This is a great set of exercises that, if performed twice with a short break in between and at the level they suggest, will leave you totally wiped and feeling like you received a great workout. When I'm in a good workout rhythm, 4 days a week (2x running, 2x amended 7-minute) seems to work pretty well.
Similarly, very hard to measure the amount of time that we spend actively thinking about our work outside of the office. My first job was in investment banking, where I was physically in the office or meetings far more than my bosses; when I was outside of the office (what little time that was), I was rarely thinking about my job. It was clear, however, that the best mid-level and senior men/women were thinking about their clients and brainstorming even while they might not technically be working.
